What are the ASDs teachers qualifications?
By law at least 50% of teaching staff at chartered public schools are required to be certified by the state of New Hampshire or have three years of teaching experience. At the ASD, all core courses (English, History, Mathematics, Physics, Biology and Chemistry) are taught by NH state certified teachers. Classes in areas of specialization, such as computer programming and engineering, are taught by subject experts that do not necessarily have state certification. As with any public school, all ASD staff are required to have police background checks.
